On it's side again
Am I expecting to much, or does my car just like taking a rest on it's side from time to time? Did it again today, with a bit more damage this time, mirror, front bumper, dent bonnet,grill, 1 alloy, air vent, rear bumper and a lot of scratches. I think I'll claim this time. At least it will get washed again.
I am sorry to hear that :'(
Could it be driver error :( ?
Driver error indeed
Hi Christo
fit a Mitsubishi inclinometer or carry 200kg of ballast in the load space....you can fit that new load sensor valve very easily now it is on its side :lol:
I should have replaced my load sensor, not tow such heavy loads, and then the bloody dog walker walking in the middle of the road, around a tight bend might also have something to do with it.
If I used my centre lock for coming down the steep muddy bank I would have been ok.
If you don't push it to far, how will you know how far you can push it though?
Any photos?
This looked innocent enough at first :)
Until I noticed this :(
Have a closer look :shock:
The whole roof had moved. I didn't believe it could be straightened, but it was :D
Eddie.
Apart from the roof, how did it look?
:shock:
sorry to hear it mate...!
It's okay Huss, that was last year.
We had the technology, we could rebuild it:
"Yes We Can!"
:wink:
i meant christo, not you eddie :(
i knew you had the technology.......eddie :wink:
i would just like to wish all gwoa members safe and happy motoring :wink:
christo, just get the beast back on the road asap mate :P
It seems that I have been very lucky both times now. (That is just in this car)
The car is running, all parts sourced, and will fit this weekend. Only thing is the roofrack is smashed, and I only bought it the other day, so Huss you'll have to send me that extra set now please.
Fetched 2.5 ton of sand this morning instead of the normal 3.5. I think easy does it. Nothing else can get the plant and materials down to my house, the track is not strong enough for tractor weight, to slippery for LR, tight angles, etc. If I loose this car now I will have to get a G to finish the job, so I can't claim at the moment.
That is definetly a very mean looking G.
